[Spector]

1992 Camry Amsoil 10W30 with Amsoil SDF 57 filter (7500 mile changes)
1997 Isuzu Rodeo Amsoil 10W30 with SDF 20 (7500 mile changes)
1997 Mitsubishi 3000 GT VR-4 Amsoil 10W30 with SDF 36 (5000 or 1 year)
2000 Buick GSE Amsoil 10W30 with SDF 29 (12,000 mile changes)
1996 Mercury Mystique Amsoil 0W30 with K&N H2004 filter (was using Pure One) (1 year changes regardless of mileage)

[Rick in PA]

2001 Chrysler PT Cruiser
Purolator Pure One oil filter
5W-30 Pennzoil (winter)
10-W30 Pennzoil (summer)

1998 Ford Windstar
Motorcraft oil filter
5W-30 Pennzoil (winter)
10W-30 Pennzoil (summer)

Although, I haven't been totally consistent about the oil. Sometimes Castrol GTX or Valvoline, but I swear I'm gonna' stick with the yellow bottle in the future. Not sure about the oil filter for the future. Planned on going Purolator Pure One for both vehicles, but there's Super Tech or maybe Motorcraft (Purolator private label) in the future.

today i was talking to red line i asked them just for the heck of it about what brand of oil filters they like... and he said that wix makes the best and that the racing community uses wix also

Why would they say that? I still think the K&N probably outflows the Wix, and definitely has a higher efficiency and higher burst strength.

But the Wix wins on value for sure.

Restored 1970 Mach 1/ 351C4V.
Mobil M1-301 filter.
Redline 10W-40.

98 Toyota Tacoma 3.4L 4x4.
Bosch 72161 filter.
Mobil 1 10W-30

2001 Corolla 1.8L.
Bosch 72166 filter.
Mobil 1 10W-30.

Switched my daily drivers from M1 filters to Bosch due to availability here and price. Mobil filters are toooooo expensive, for anything other than my classic. The 2 brands look almost identical though. Aren't they both made by Champion?
